The title of this blog comes from a Gaelic expression -"putting on the poor mouth"-which means to exaggerate the direness of one's situation in order to gain time or favour from creditors.

Lemon Pipers - The Jelly Jungle of Orange Marmalade
The Jelly Jungle of Orange Marmalade.
Cheesy 60s music invariably cheers me up. Perfect for International Optimism Day
Turn that frown upside down
The third Monday of January is known as Blue Monday as it is considered to be the most depressing day of the year - the Christmas and New Year parties are a distant memory, the credit card bills and trudging to work when it is cold and snowing (or perhaps the rain is just hammering down) are distinct realities.
But fear not. today has been designated International Optimism Day but the Optimists Society. So cheer up and count your blessings... or something like that anyway.
In honour of this august day (okay so it's January but what the hey!)The Poor Mouth will have nothing but happy and cheerful posts all day. Bile and misery can wait until tomorrow
